Abstract
State of the art systems used for monitoring of land (for example, agricultural land), fail to accurately assess various conditions in the land area and make predictions. The disclosure herein generally relates to agricultural systems, and, more particularly, to a method and system for micro-climate management in a land area being monitored. The system groups the different plots based on sensor trend information and based on a determined homogeneity information. A micro-climate view of the land area is accordingly generated, which in turn is used to generate micro-climate predictions.
Claims12
A processor implemented method of micro-climate management, comprising:
- collecting sensor data with respect to ambient conditions and field conditions in a plurality of plots in a land area being monitored, using a plurality of sensors, via one or more hardware sensors;
- grouping all sensors from among the plurality of sensors, that are identified as following same trend in a trend analysis of the plurality of sensors, to generate one or more sensor groups, via the one or more hardware sensors;
- performing regrouping of the plurality of sensors forming the one or more sensor groups to form one or more regrouped sensor groups, by iteratively performing the regrouping based on a determined homogeneity of the plurality of sensors forming the one or more sensor groups, via the one or more hardware sensors;
- generating a micro-climate view of the land area, wherein generating the micro-climate view comprises grouping plots from among the plurality of plots, based on the regrouped sensor groups, via the one or more hardware sensors, wherein the plots forming the micro-climate view are homogenous plots;
- and
- performing a micro-climate forecast of the ambient conditions in the land area being monitored, for at least one future instance of time, based on the micro-climate view, via the one or more hardware sensors.
A system for micro-climate management, comprising:
- one or more hardware processors;
- an I/O interface;
- and
- a memory storing a plurality of instructions, wherein the plurality of instructions when executed, cause the one or more hardware processors to:
- collect sensor data with respect to ambient conditions and field conditions in a plurality of plots in a land area being monitored, using a plurality of sensors;
- group all sensors from among the plurality of sensors, that are identified as following same trend in a trend analysis of the plurality of sensors, to generate one or more sensor groups;
- perform regrouping of the plurality of sensors forming the one or more sensor groups to form one or more regrouped sensor groups, by iteratively performing the regrouping based on a determined homogeneity of the plurality of sensors forming the one or more sensor groups;
- generate a micro-climate view of the land area, wherein generating the micro-climate view comprises grouping plots from among the plurality of plots, based on the regrouped sensor groups, wherein the plots forming the micro-climate view are homogenous plots;
- and
- perform a micro-climate forecast of the ambient conditions in the land area being monitored, for at least one future instance of time, based on the micro-climate view.
One or more non-transitory machine-readable information storage mediums comprising one or more instructions which when executed by one or more hardware processors cause:
- collecting sensor data with respect to ambient conditions and field conditions in a plurality of plots in a land area being monitored, using a plurality of sensors;
- grouping all sensors from among the plurality of sensors, that are identified as following same trend in a trend analysis of the plurality of sensors, to generate one or more sensor groups;
- performing regrouping of the plurality of sensors forming the one or more sensor groups to form one or more regrouped sensor groups, by iteratively performing the regrouping based on a determined homogeneity of the plurality of sensors forming the one or more sensor groups;
- generating a micro-climate view of the land area, wherein generating the micro-climate view comprises grouping plots from among the plurality of plots, based on the regrouped sensor groups wherein the plots forming the micro-climate view are homogenous plots;
- and
- performing a micro-climate forecast of the ambient conditions in the land area being monitored, for at least one future instance of time, based on the micro-climate view.
